Don’t Tread On Me, another one of the more aggressive songs from The Black Album, isn’t exactly a song which I enjoy too much, and ironically, James Hetfield supports this. Don’t Tread On Me isn’t a terrible song, but it does sound slightly forced in my opinion and it …

Blackened, the opening track of Metallica’s fourth record, opens in a similar fashion to Fight Fire With Fire, the opener from Ride The Lightning, and Battery, the opener from Master Of Puppets. In fact, now that I think about it, Blackened also seems to share a common lyrical theme …

Shontelle is an R&B singer-songwriter from Barbados. This aspiring lawyer-singer is also the one who sang T-shirt, which became my theme song whenever I am taking a bath. Impossible is another hit single coming from her that is far much better than T-shirt because of the story. The story …

She’s Leaving Home is a track which appears on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles. Although the track is credited to Lennon/McCartney, for some reason I feel like McCartney had more influence in the songwriting of this track and I have to say that I’m extremely …

Unintended is a track by Muse which appears on Showbiz, their first record. I just finished a review for Sober which is another track on that record, and in comparison with that track, Unintended sounds a lot different.

I think that the American rock band “Good Charlotte” used to be one of the more popular rock bands about since they had so many hits songs around a particular period of time. I think that part of the reason might also be the fact that the vocalist “Joel” …

Monstrously succesful, an absolute legend, constantly on the charts, Pink Floyd’s undisputed masterpiece. These could be the adjectives with which this record could be described with.

I can say that everytime I listen to Ronan Keating songs, I feel my emotion is flow with the song. His voice make my feeling so romantic and sometimes is preety much sad. Like the song, ‘when you say nothing at all’, it’s a slow ballad romantic that usually …

Of all the bands to come out of the garage-rock revival of the early 2000s, The Strokes were probably the best — at least in their initial effort. Regarded as the then-newest saviors of rock and roll, The Strokes fashioned distinctly post-modern rock and roll. The dueling guitars, a …

It was probably back in 2000 or 2001 that I first saw the Black Eyed Peas on VH1. It was a video where they were all getting blown onto this glass or plastic and the camera was behind it. So it lucked like they were in some kind of …

Brockhampton isn’t what you would normally expect from a boy band. Before listening, I didn’t know what to expect from the guys, since this was my first time listening to them. I was recently trying to expand the kind of music that I listen to, so I decided that …

The song sneaky snake is sung by Tom T. Hall. This song is sort of a joke because it is so funny. When I hear this song I think of the line about the snake drinking all the root beer. Somehow though that just seems impossible and silly. Snakes …

No one puts her personal touch on something like Barbra Streisand does. She is without a doubt one of the greatest singers of all time. She puts all of herself into every number, and that shines through with sensitive and passionate numbers on Barbra - Back to …

It may just be my personal preference for acoustics, but this song is just beautiful and breathtaking. Especially when I can relate to it.

Following up the lackluster 2006 release “The Information” should not be a difficult thing for loser iconoclast Beck, but “Modern Guilt” is yet another disappointing effort in a period of artistic decline that began with 2005’s “Guero”. It was in 2005 that Beck began to recycle ideas he had …
